I highly recommend if you're looking for diversity and the avoidance of americanization, I would recommend looking beyond the UK settings and into fiction inspired by or taking place in other parts of the world. Speculative fiction has had an explosion of culturally diverse and distint cultural nods lately- The Daevabad Trilogy by Chakraborty for example, or Lagoon by Okorafor, or the Dreamblood Duology by Jemisin, or The Paper Menagerie by Ken Liu. In my opinion it isn't that books aren't increasingly becoming more american. Books are increasingly globally set, from where I'm reading. (Of course, this may not be the case in non-speculative fiction sphere.)
